Each is totally different from the other two, but they all possess an adventure-climbing flavour that adds to the appeal. These summits have retained an exclusiveness which is rare given the current popularity of rock-climbing. A trip to any one of them is not just another day at the crags - but it is a day you will surely remember for a long time to come." history="" acknowledgement="Original guide by Roger Parkyn, published in Craglets.

From here there&apos;s about 12km of unsealed Forestry road to Fortescue Bay. All up, about 100km from the city centre. As with most roads in Tasmania, be careful of wildlife from dusk to dawn, as they seem to enjoy jumping into the middle of the road at unsuitable times. All of these spires can be done in a day from Hobart.

<text class="heading2" id="3">Cape Hauy</text>
<text class="text" id="4">There are a number of interesting rock formations in the Cape Hauy area: The Candlestick, The Totem Pole, The Monument and assorted cliffs up to 100m high. It is a very spectacular spot and worthwhile even for just a look.</text>
<text class="text" id="5">The walking track to Cape Hauy starts from beside the boat ramp in the Fortescue Bay Campground, at the right-hand end of the beach as you drive in.</text>
<text class="text" id="6">The walk takes about an hour and a half. The track is well defined and in very good condition as it has been re-built as part of the proposed Three Capes Walk. To get to the abseil point for the Stick and the Tote, continue past the warning sign at the end of the formed track and follow a pad downhill. It is another 100m or so to the end of Cape Hauy. Follow a rough, slightly overgrown, and sporadically cairned track in the direction of Fortescue Bay along to a profile view of both sea stacks, at a level lower than the Tote's summit. From here you can traverse back across to a ledge within spitting distance of the Tote. Access to both stacks is by abseiling from a DBB here (about 60m).</text>
<text class="heading3" id="7">The Totem Pole</text>
<text class="text" id="8">The Totem Pole is one of the most spectacular pieces of rock on the planet. It is a free-standing dolerite pillar spearing straight out of the water in a gloomy chasm infested with sharks and subject to volatile swell patterns. It is over sixty metres tall, but only about four metres wide at the base. It sways in the wind and shudders with the crash of every wave. The "Tote" is too slender to even be described as a phallic symbol, unless of course you've got a very skinny dick!</text>
<text class="text" id="9">The prospect this piece of rock presents the climber is uncompromising and chilling. Equip yourself not only with the necessary gear but also a bottle of bravery pills. The challenge is psychological as much as technical.</text>
<text class="text" id="10">See the Cape Hauy overview for details to get the the rap point. Fix a 60m rope to the DBB here and rap into the chasm. What you do next will depend on how big the swell is at the time...</text>
<text class="text" id="11">In good conditions, it is possible to stand comfortably on the flat rock at the base of the Ewbank Route. There is a single carrot bolt at the bottom of route which can be used by the belayer for all routes on the Tote if that is the case. Even in moderate swell conditions, however it is subject to wave wash. (RP: I found that wearing bare feet and a waterproof jacket helped).</text>
<text class="text" id="12">In more 'elevated' seas, a hanging belay is often employed at the start of the Deep Play Variant First Pitch, just left of the arete closest to the mainland. There is a spacious ledge about 4m off the water opposite the Fortescue Bay facing side that may be used as a base camp for the entertaining operation of penduluming over to the Tote. Taking a stick-clipping device of about 3 m length makes this crossing to this belay easy.</text>
<text class="text" id="13">The easiest 'descent' option is to trail your abseil rope to to the top and use it to Tyrolean traverse back to the mainland. If you don't know what a Tyrolean traverse is, or how to set one up, then this is probably not the best place to learn how.</text>

<climb id="15" name="The Ewbank Route (free version aka &apos;The Freed Route&apos;)" number="1." fa="John Ewbank, Allan Keller, March 1968. FFA: Doug McConnell, Dean Rollins, Jan 2009." grade="27" length="65m" extra="" stars="">All but ignored following the ascent of The Free Route, the original aid route to the top of the Totem Pole was not as impossible to free as many had suspected. It now provides quality free climbing of a more committing nature than The Free Route. Gear required: plenty of quickdraws, cams to #1 Camalot, with doubles from #0.5 Camalot down, 1 set of wires, 1 set of RPs. Double ropes recommended.&lt;br/&gt;1. 20m 25. Start as for The Free Route and follow it to the SW (i.e. right) arête. Instead of continuing R, climb the arête, face and hollow flake to the triangular alcove.&lt;br/&gt;2. 15m 26. From the alcove, climb up to the roof. Step L around the arête via spike to a thin flake (good medium wires). Climb the face and arête, trending R at the horizontal to the semi-hanging DBB. Consider belaying the next pitch from below the DBB to avoid a potential factor 2 fall.&lt;br/&gt;3. 25m 27. Up the L arête and crack/seam, past a bolt, to a stance. Continue up crack past rattling spikes to the upper alcove. Up thin crack, then R and up to finish at ledge (DBB).&lt;br/&gt;4. 5m 17. Climb the prominent crack in the summit block. A tricky start gives way to cruisy crack climbing (this 'pitch' was freed on the first ascent).</climb>
<climb id="16" name="The Free Route" number="2." fa="Steve Monks, Simon Mentz (alt.), Jane Wilkinson, Simon Carter, Mar 1995." grade="25" length="65m" extra="" stars="***">An improbable and awesome route. One of the most iconic and recognisable rock climbs in the country, this route spirals its way up the Tote, climbing on all four faces. Start on the rock platform at the base of the Original Route if the swell is low, otherwise set up a hanging belay at the start of Deep Play. Many ascents these days start with the Deep Play variant first pitch instead of the one described here.&lt;br/&gt;1. 25m 25. Up the balancey arete on the L until possible to traverse R (across the Original Route) to the R arete (bolts). Keep moving R around the pillar (bolt) and then head up short corner (2 fixed pins, and/or cams) to the ledge.&lt;br/&gt;2. 40m 25. This is a really superb pitch; long, sustained, interesting and well-equipped. Pure class. Most people go L for a few metres after clipping the third bolt, and the back to the arete. There are 10 FHs, with some natural gear (cams) required in the last 10m. Gear: cams from small to #2 Camalot (but #0.75 and #1 are not used on this pitch or "Deep Play"), and plenty of quickdraws (including a couple of extendable quickdraws for under the roof).</climb>
<climb id="17" name="Gallegos Route" number="3." fa="Gallegos brothers (Spanish aid hard-men) 1993." grade="A?" length="65m" extra="" stars="">No one seems to know anything much about this, except that it appeared in a Boreal catalogue. From fixed gear left behind, it appears that the first pitch goes out left from the start of the Original Route and up to the big ledge on the far side (this pitch has been freed and is now known as Deep Play). The second pitch then cuts back R across the Tote, following a thin diagonal hairline crack with 2 old pitons... to perhaps join the Original Route at belay two? It may finish as for that route, or it could continue up independently... no sé!</climb>
<climb id="18" name="Deep Play" number="4." fa="Gallegos brothers (Spanish aid hard-men) 1993. FFA: Steve Monks, Enga Lokey, Feb 1999." grade="24" length="20m" extra="" stars="***">A popular alternative to the first pitch of the Free Route, as it lessens then the shenanigans required to get your abseil/Tyrolean rope to the summit. This pitch was originally aid-climbed as the first pitch to the Gallegos Route. It has now been retro-bolted (with 5 fixed hangers) and freed to create a more direct approach to the ledge on the far side of the Tote. Take a set of wires, and cams to red alien.</climb>
<climb id="104" name="The Sorcerer " number="5." fa="Garry Phillips and Chris Coppard, 2015." grade="27" length="58m" extra="" stars="***">A mind-blowing line. The climbing is sustained and technically demanding. &lt;br/&gt;1. 10m 22 Climb up to the 1st bolt on Deep Play, clip this with a long draw then drop back down a few metres to the horizontal break. Traverse left and around the arête to a stance and belay on the east face. &lt;br/&gt;2. 15m 25 Blast up the face for a few metres then traverse onto the right hand arête. Climb this via a tricky and powerful crux sequence to the ledge.&lt;br/&gt;Note: stay on the right hand arête: if you head left at the top it will become way run out and even harder. &lt;br/&gt;3. 30m 27 Follow the finger crack (.5 .4 .3 and .2 camolots) to the left hand arête. Up this past 8BR and a few bits of natural gear to the traverse line that leads right to the ledge. &lt;br/&gt;4. 3m 17 The crack to the summit. &lt;br/&gt;Gear List:&lt;br/&gt;• Double set of cams from .2 to .5 camolots&lt;br/&gt;• 2x 30cm quick draws&lt;br/&gt;• 1x 60cm quick draw&lt;br/&gt;• 14x quick draws&lt;br/&gt;• single 60m rope and 1 x 120cm sling &lt;br/&gt;• A ton of Psyche!&lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt; &lt;br/&gt;</climb>
<text class="heading3" id="19">The Candlestick</text>
<text class="text" id="20">The Candlestick stands behind the Tote. The sea heaving and surging between them caresses the rock walls like a hot lover. The water isn't that hot though, pretty freezing really, but hey, you didn't walk all this way for some kind of disco-party. You lugged all that climbing junk down to this chasm of doom for something far more special - a climbing experience you can really launch yourself into ... bodily.</text>
<text class="text" id="21">The crux of the Candlestick is the swim. About 10m of shark-infested, usually surging, water lies between the base of the Tote and the Stick. Send someone else into the water but first give them an end of a rope so they can rig up a Tyrolean. This will minimise the overall wetness of the party. I hesitate to state what should be bloody obvious but someone from Queensland wrote in to say that people should be advised not to swim around the Cape Pillar side to the Tote. Despite the sharp angle the 60m obelisk would put on their rope they were hoping that it would slide smoothly up the Tote as they climbed the Candlestick (until they would be high enough to simply flick it over). They appear to have been surprised when their ropes got caught!</text>
<text class="text" id="22">&lt;br/&gt;Access&lt;br/&gt;To get to the abseil point for the Stick and the Tote, at the end of the formed track follow a pad downhill. It is another 100m or so to the end of Cape Hauy. Follow a rough, slightly overgrown track in the direction of Fortescue Bay along to a profile view of both sea stacks, at a level lower than the Tote's summit. From here you can traverse back right across to a ledge within spitting distance of the Tote. Access to both stacks is by abseiling from a DBB here (about 60m). A 70m+ rap line is required to be able to access start of routes (or extend the 60m rope).&lt;br/&gt;There are two ledges on the Candlestick accessible by a short swim from the base of the Tote: (1) A small one to the north that has a double bolt belay with fixed hangers 3m above sea level. This is the start of the NW (The Corner)Route. Jump in and swim left to ledge with U bolts 2-3m above the water. Drag traverse rope across 15m gap and setup Tyrolean or swim.&lt;br/&gt;and (2) a larger one, with no bolts, that is about 20 m south of (1) in the direction of Cape Pillar, behind the Tote, and directly below the actual Candlestick summit.&lt;br/&gt;The Middle Way, the Original (1971) Route and The Wick (1981) start from the larger (southern) ledge. The West Wall is also accessible from here by climbing up The Wick a short way before traversing left.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Descent&lt;br/&gt;OnFrom the Candlestick summit itrapisdownreportedtothere are double belay the bolts at the northbottomendof(wetheare not sure of this)last pitch. AlternativelyTheabseil off slings to get down to the higher Tyrolean fixed anchors at the top pf pitch 3. The Tyrolean 40m Tyrolean back requires two ropes and involves a controlled decentdescent as anchors are approx. 20m higher than mainland. TheIt40misTyroleanalsobackpossible to the mainland requires two ropes.&lt;br/&gt;Alternatively rap down to the U bolts at the top of pitch 2 of ‘The Original Route’ and set up a Tyrolean from there, although ropes have been known to become stuck from this point.&lt;br/&gt;&lt;br/&gt;Loose rock is the norm on the Candlestick so take great care. Look out for those below you.&lt;br/&gt;</text>

<text class="heading3" id="25">The Monument (aka The Monolith)</text>
<text class="text" id="26">This large sea-stack is just off to the south of Cape Hauy (clearly visible from the track) was first climbed in 1970 by a Climbers' Club of Tasmania group. This sea-stack is much less popular than the others in the area, perhaps due to the fact that it is not as dramatic looking and is only about 50m high. However, since it is about 100m off shore, it is not any less of an mission to reach the top. Indeed, the tale of the first ascent is yet another grand CCT epic spread over a few attempts.</text>
<text class="text" id="27">Prior to the successful attempt, Mendelt Tillema had already swam out to the stack, though his companion (Peter McHugh), who planned to follow in a rubber dingy was not able to make it out to the stack due to the swell. Mendelt swam back to shore and the attempt was aborted. The next time, Mendelt again swam (trailing a rope) to the prominent ledge on the NE corner of the stack. Mike Emery and Ray Lassman tied in the middle of the rope and followed, while Col Hocking held the other end and waited on the mainland should things get messy. McHugh contributed to proceedings by tumbling down the cliff as the start of the day, leaving blood stained rocks as markers for the path to the sea.</text>
<text class="text" id="28">From the ledge, the team took the prominent chimney in the corner. This was an 80ft (or 25m) pitch at a grade of "VDiff" (now considered about grade 12-ish), and then a scramble to the top. Upon erecting a cairn they donated some green tights for a flag, though it appears these have long since blown away.</text>
<text class="text" id="29">Most (all?) subsequent ascents have utilised a vessel of some sort; either a kayak, or a motor boat (including the second ascent, where they hitched a ride out to the stack on a fishing boat, and flagged down another boat to get a lift back a few hours later!). These days, the sea-stack is perhaps best approached by a kayak launched from Fortescue Bay on a calm day; unless you like swimming, that is.</text>

<text class="heading3" id="33">Cape Hauy Cliffs</text>
<text class="text" id="34">The following route climbs the steep cliffs overlooking the Candlestick and the Totem Pole, and is accessed by rapping down the route. To get there, follow the Cape Hauy track from Fortescue Bay as for the Totem Pole. At the "Track Ends 50 metres" sign, do not turn off left (as for the Tote), rather go to the end of the track to the rock edge/lookout on the R. Rap bolts are located on the L (looking out), just over the edge. TODO: GPS co-ords.</text>
<text class="text" id="35">The raps are: (a) 25m from top (DBB) to a ledge (2 rings + 1 FH), (b) 30m to 2 rings, (c) 30m to 2 FH, then (d) 15m to the bottom ledge, which is huge. NOTE: rap (b) does NOT go directly below the bolts, but instead goes off the other side of the ledge (towards Cape Pillar).</text>
<climb id="36" name="Candle in the Wind" number="23." fa="Steve Monks, Adrian Laing, May 2006." grade="25" length="100m" extra="" stars="">Another great alternative if you go to do the Free Route on the Totem Pole and the seas are too big. The bottom ledge for this route is 15 metres off sea level, so the route will be a goer in 'most' seas. Gear required: 60m climbing rope, 2 sets of wires, double set cams to #3 Camalot, hexes, 3 bolt plates, lots of draws.&lt;br/&gt;1. 15m 24. Off the deck past 3 carrots to 2 fixed hangers. Natural gear also required.&lt;br/&gt;2. 30m 25. Straight up crack to belay stance with DBB.&lt;br/&gt;3. 30m 22/23. Continue up crack to ledge with DBB.&lt;br/&gt;4. 25m 18. Interesting face &amp; crack climbing to the ledge, then up corner to top (it is possible to finish more easily on the R).</climb>
<text class="text" id="37">The following route is on the mainland cliffs facing the Totem Pole. Fix a 60m rope to DBB as for the Totem Pole access, but rap diagonally towards Cape Pillar (SE), heading down a scungy corner to a ledge with a DBB belay. Continue rapping down the wall below, L of knife blade arête, to arrive at a small ledge about 5m above the ocean with another DBB.</text>

A great bad weather option when the Tote is being hammered by the swell.&lt;br/&gt;1. 35m 24. Climb sustained arête past 10 FHs that get fairly spaced and oddly placed as you get higher. Belay on vegetated ledge at DBB.&lt;br/&gt;2. 20m 20. Up thin crack splitting the exposed arête above to small ledge. Sling rock tooth with a large sling and climb easily to top. Belay off the DBB.</climb>
<text class="heading3" id="39">The Safe House</text>
<text class="text" id="40">Situated in a small inlet about 0.5 km from the end of Cape Hauy, are some superb dolerite sea crags discovered in March 1989 after a huge swell aborted a Candlestick attempt. To get there leave the Cape Hauy track (as marked on the map) and walk along the ridge line to the coast (downhill from the ridge the scrub is horrendous!). As you get to the coast you have to bash through some pretty thick stuff for maybe 100m 'til you arrive at the crag. (Editor's note: a boat sounds like a good alternative. Has anyone got one?). Routes are from L to R. The hard looking arête makes a good point of reference.</text>

<text class="text" id="49">There are still quite a few routes to do here still, not to mention along the rest of the coastline. (Editor's note: there's probably quite a bit of track cutting and marking still to do as well!).</text>
<text class="heading3" id="50">Fortescue Bay Cliff</text>
<text class="text" id="51">A quiet, sunny heat trap, right on the sea and with a pleasant rock platform at its base. The crag is about 20 metres high, and the rock is fairly typical of Tasman Peninsula, generally okay but take care. Climbing is generally on cracks and flakes. Routes will clean up with traffic. The cliff faces north, and is a warm winter crag, particularly if the sun is shining. Approach from Fortescue Bay. Walk along the Cape Hauy track for 5 minutes until it begins to leave the coast (don't follow it inland). Drop down to the shoreline and follow it for another 15 minutes. You will come to the top of the crag - you can't miss it. Either abseil, or continue through the scrub to a tricky down climb near the far end. The cleaner routes are marked with a star.</text>

<text class="heading2" id="64">The Moai</text>
<text class="text" id="65">The Moai completes the trilogy. No aid, no swim, just quality routes - uncompromisingly modern in style - in a wild and scenic location. The Moai is a lone column of dolerite beside the sea, north of Fortescue Bay. Amidst the walls of rock along the coastline it stands apart, resting upon an altar formed by a rock platform, like a discontinuity in the time-space continuum. Its spiritual significance is obvious. Rock is not simply the medium for the sport, as only climbers know, the rock is sacred and the Moai is a shrine to the Rock Gods - a place of worship. (Editor's note: Moai is the name of the monoliths on Easter Island, pronounced "mow"-"eye")</text>
<text class="text" id="66">To get to the Moai, walk along the beach from Fortescue Bay and onto the track to Waterfall Bay. About 1 hour 15 minutes of walking takes you to Bivouac Bay (good camp site with toilet). From Bivouac Bay, continue along the track for about 5 or 10 minutes until the crest of the spur is reached; there are two sawn stumps (approx. 40cm diameter) on the track here. Another 20m (approximately) along the track a small cairn marks the route to the abseils. Additional cairns and faded yellow (i.e. white) tape marks the route. Finally, climb around a large boulder to reach the abseil anchors (a U and a chain-link about 100m from the track). The first abseil is 15m (grade 16 if you want to climb back out). There are then two more of similar height off trees (these two can be done together as a 50m abseil and are about grade 12 if you're climbing out). Alternatively, a 60m rope fixed from the top anchors will just reach the bottom. From the bottom of the abseils it is relatively straightforward to scramble down to the rock platform. At most times, the rock platform is unthreatened by waves, but in certain heavier swell conditions waves do occasionally sweep across. Take care if the sea is rough, especially on the scramble to the platform.</text>

Move up a slight flake crack on the R, via the 0.4 and 0.5 camalot, and pull left onto the arête at a fixed hanger. Climb with increasing difficulty via carrots and some fixed hangers to a slight runout to the belay. &lt;br/&gt;2. 25m 24. Continue up the arête on slightly worsening rock , where a #5 Rock eases tricky moves up to a short crack. Again there is a slight runout to the belay, but a 0.75 cam helps. &lt;br/&gt;3. 10m 19. Climb the groove to a carrot, step R and go up a solid hand crack past a second carrot to the top.</climb>
